Interaction between carbon nanotubes and metals: Electronic properties, stability, and sensing
F. Fuchs, A. Zienert, C. Wagner +2
The interactions between carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and metal adatoms as well as metal contacts are studied by means of ab initio electronic structure calculations. We show that the e…
Improved recursive Green's function formalism for quasi one-dimensional systems with realistic defects
Fabian Teichert, Andreas Zienert, Jörg Schuster +1
We derive an improved version of the recursive Green's function formalism (RGF), which is a standard tool in the quantum transport theory. We consider the case of disordered quasi…
Strong localization in defective carbon nanotubes: a recursive Green's function study
Fabian Teichert, Andreas Zienert, Jörg Schuster +1
We study the transport properties of defective single-walled armchair carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on a mesoscopic length scale. Monovacancies and divancancies are positioned randomly a…
Electronic transport in metallic carbon nanotubes with mixed defects within the strong localization regime
Fabian Teichert, Andreas Zienert, Jörg Schuster +1
We study the electron transport in metallic carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with realistic defects of different types. We focus on large CNTs with many defects in the mesoscopic range. In…
